One can only guess why, on a daily basis now, a certain settler scum is spamming this site. Could it be that he and his insular messianic Judeonazi flock are feeling the heat and realising that maybe soon they have to give back what they've stolen?..Or is it just part of that "sharmoota sharmoota" method where they resort to this vile practice because it's what comes naturally to them being the evil mutation of humans gone wrong?

I think his comments should be left undeleted as a testimony of sick minds.
ReplyDeleteAnd letting him be satified that he had defecated on our doorsteps? Nah!! Not him, never! And never again with the flaming ass either!! Enough is enough!!

ReplyDeleteI guess you know already that I don't agree with banning people unless they break Asa'ad's old rules: only banning offenses being revealing personal information about someone else or direct threats(I'd also add spamming to that list). Still, it's your blog and you put all time to put it out there. I can totally understand how if someone puts comments up purely to annoy people, that you want them to disappear. It's a shame that fleming, et all, can't express a dissenting opinion without being rude(actually, I suspect the opinion is just an excuse to be a jerk).
Anyway, I just want to make sure you know I appreciate the time and effort you put into this blog. I read it everyday, even if I don't have time to comment. But please remember that a wide range of opinions will make the blog a more interesting read.
Thanks again for all the time you put into this thing.
Joe
ReplyDeleteYou might be surprised to know that it's not about dissenting views at all. Vza has got dissenting views aplenty ands it never crosses my my to do anything like banning her! Fleming and that filthy character of yishai are into the business of being deliberately annoying us..They get a lot of personal gratification from being rude, intentionally dumb and totally immune to any imput of any kind which simply means a dialogue with walls and stones. Totally fruitless. That they use this site as a tribune to satisfy those sadistic inclinations has to be put to an end. I doubt anyone would come to this site to readf fleming's prose and if it was effectively the case then I and the other contributors have miserably failed in getting them to be interested in what we and you included have to say..I fail to see how fleming and yishai are part of that wide range of views which is going to make this site more interesting to read..In case ypou still doubt that fleming is the staunch racist that he denies to be you should have seen his latest comments where racial insults are no more subdued or veiled..Because he knows that you're not going to see them he's revealing his true and abject and racist nature..Sadly I don't have the facility that we used to have with JS Kit when we could release banned comments. Otherwise it would have been a pleasure to release them so you could see what essentially fleming is about!

The JS-Kit facility we used to have was meant as a tial for a limited time only. It's now available only for paying customers.
ReplyDeleteAnother thing joe..Based on my own experience with blogs, it's people like fleming, yishai and anand who used to make me stop visiting, reading or commenting on a blog and I'm sure I'm not alone in this case. People want variety, I want and welcome variety but of the interesting kind. I can do without the trash.

now you got me all curious on fleming's true color posts.

ReplyDeleteI can imagine what fleming said-don't forget that I'm a veteran of Asa'ad's blog, so I am well aware of the crap some of these anonymous commenters spew. I don't fault you at all from removing their words from your site-the operative word in that sentence is YOUR. You put a lot of effort into this site on your own time, and if someone is interested enough in what you put together to leave a comment, they should at least have a modicum of civility.
That being said(I bet you knew that was coming), from a Palestinian perspective, who would you rather have articulating the Zionist position: Elie Weisel, Jerry Seinfeld, or that yk asshole? Futhermore, who do you think most accurately represents the Zionist program, mentality, and reality?

You CERTAINLY have a strong point here and I do not pretend that it's a simple matter. There are cons and pros to banning people. It's also important to note that they should be sent the message that there's a price to pay for being a total asshole.
why would my comments offend you TGIA?
ReplyDeleteFlemming is seriously off. I have rarely met conservative protestant republicans that are like him. Many Americans are not interested in foreigners; but few Americans have such horrible views regarding so many foreigners.
I would like to understand settlers better. I understand why many Jewish Israelis (and perhaps American Jews such as Molly) would like to live in diverse desegregated Palestinian communities. Palestinians are an amazing and cultured people that Israelis could and desire to learn a lot from.
But why move to segregated nondiverse Jewish only gated communities in the occupied territories? It kind of defeats to purpose of moving to Palestine (to benefit by living among and learning from Palestinians.)
Why so much anger and hatred among so many settlers for Palestinians? It makes no sense. So irrational. "So uncivilized" (to quote Charles Barkley.)

I make a post as long as an arm about Israel's achievements/records composed of something like 40 points or arguments. You casually show up here and brush off the whole thing saying that most are false without a SHRED of argumentation or proof! This is consistent with all your comments. No links, no proof no arguments only statements of a divine essence! How is this attitude more respectable than fleming's?
One more thing joe. In the end As'ad had to close his comments section, no? I can't see this as a positive outcome of a certain "laissez faire" attitude.
ReplyDelete"divine essence" . . . what a nice term. Shouldn't we all speak with "divine essence"? Perhaps we already do but don't know it.
ReplyDelete"<span>I make a post as long as an arm about Israel's achievements/records composed of something like 40 points or arguments. You casually show up here and brush off the whole thing saying that most are false without a SHRED of argumentation or proof!</span>" VZA did critique some of them. What was wrong wasn't the accusactions against Israel so much as the assertion "only Israel has done such and such." Most of the accusations against Israel are also true of many other countries around the world. Much of what Palestinians suffer is also suffered by many countries around the world. It is the casual assertion of Palestinian "exceptionalism" in suffering that I object to (so do many other people around the world for that matter.) Why does the suffering of nonPalestinians matter less to some than the suffering of Palestinians?
Many Pakistanis are furious that the Taliban has destroyed 500 of their schools (more upset at the Taliban than even Israel truth be told); yet how much do Arabs care about it? How much do Arabs care that AQ linked networks killed over a thousand Thais? How much do non Iraqi Arabs care that Takfiris killed tens of thousands of Iraqis? How many Arabs are trying to help poor Bangladeshis? Why do Indians, Americans, Japanese and Chinese seem to do more to help millions of poor sunni Bangladeshi than Arabs? Why no discussion among Arabs of the murder of hundreds of thousands of Bangladeshi Sunnis by the Pakistani ISI directorate and Pakistani Army? Why so little discussion about how horribly and pretentiously Saudis mistreat Indian, Bangladeshi, Malaysian and Indonesian muslims?
Trying to help Palestinians is a good thing to do; but it should be done while acknowledging that suffering is a universal sport suffered by many around the world.
I am sorry that I offended you TGIA. I'll try to behave better in the future.

Go and ask a Palestinian why he cares more about the suffering of his OWN people than the suffering of the Pakistanis. I have no time for your surrealistic prose.
You terrorist supporters can't handle the truth.
ReplyDeleteTough luck! :-D
I object to the ban!

ReplyDeleteI think Asa'ad's blog was increibly successful. He reached the point where he would have had to hire people-to monitor the comments section, for instance, and that would have required revenue, so he would have needed ads. The whole thing was getting too complicated for him to do between classes. I guess he really must like teaching, because if thousands of people were logging on to my site to read my opinions, I might just make it my full time job.
But, in general I do understand that bigots are not the most pleasing people to listen to. I guess I have heard that stuff so often in my life, it doesn't really shock me. When someone on the other side is making an ass of himself, my attitude generally is: "Please sir, continue, it is only fair you have your say."
I am refering to nonPalestinian Arabs hear. TGIA, you know how poor Bangladeshis are, you know that there are 150 million of them, you know what suffering (mass starvation, close to a million dead) Bangladesh went through in the 1970s. Where was the Arab world? Sleeping? Why didn't they help? Bangladeshis aren't even Shia . . . they are Sunni. Why do Arabs ignore them so much?
ReplyDeletePalestinians are a different matter . . . and obviously they are focused on winning their own freedom. However the friends of Palestine might be intellectually honest and not imply that Plalestinians suffering is not shared by others around the world.
"Flemming is seriously off."
ReplyDeleteAs if you are any better you chronic lair. At least he did an honest job of representing the fascist point of view.
